Verizon has put together a list of Android apps that will kill your battery life and that list includes some of the most popular games like Draw Something and Doodle Jump; Draw Something, for example, will drain your battery 2.7 faster than the average Android game and for Doodle Jump that figures actually rises to three times faster than the average game...

no, it's merely pointless and adversarial. just like trolling.
why go to any lengths just to defend your position of telling someone to shut up who may or may not have been trolling which i for the record do not see wendy as a troll. what you're doing is just not how you handle trolls, that just makes you look like a hateful asshole. either ignore them or shut them down with irrefutable logic, that's all there is to it.

and for the record a "f**k you" was really all i had intended behind that comment but since you're just going to keep on with this pointless struggle i've gone ahead and presented a point for you. you're welcome.

First of all, If you think I could simply ignore them if I don't have irrefutable logic to shut them down....

Then why the f**k are you trying to shut me down even if you don't have the "irrefutable logic"?

Oh wait maybe you think your comment:
"why go to any lengths just to defend your position of telling someone to shut up who may or may not have been trolling which i for the record do not see wendy as a troll"
This is f**king logical, isnt it? or just your own opinion.

You basically think I am not supposed to say "Shut up" to anybody unless I have the "irrefutable logic" and when I said it you said "shut up" to me...

Can you get that?
It seems you have some sort of problems to operate your brain logically so I will expain in detail what you just did.

Me: f**k you wendy
You(not even wendy): You can't say f**k you to someone
Me: Who are you? Why do you care?
You: f**k you
Me: Is that all you can say?
You: I have different opinion on Wendy and I don't think they deserve "f**k you" from you
Me: But you just said "f**k you"...so you said that because you think everyone would agree that I deserve "f**k you" from you?

I can say "Shut up" to anyone with "Common Sense"
I don't need your "Irrefutable Logic"

Moreover, you were evne saying: "what you're doing is just not how you handle trolls, that just makes you look like a hateful asshole. either ignore them or shut them down with irrefutable logic, that's all there is to it."

Are you mayor of trolls or something? or is there any book about Trolls to support your idea?

Let me ask you this: How the hell trolls can be trolls if they are able to think and accept "Logics"?

Grow up boy
I could go on forever
So if you think you could defeat me with your "irrefutable logic"..

the basis of everything you're saying insinuates that i think of you as a troll. when have i ever called you a troll? i called you a hateful asshole. i don't like hateful people and i don't like bullies so yeah, i'm gonna tell you to shut up and i'm going to say f**k you if only to come to the defense of someone that i don't think deserves such harsh treatment. you had that coming.

now when it comes to trolls everything i said before stands. you don't come off looking any better than the troll stooping to their level by being hateful to them. i see that and it's just as annoying as the trolling.

that's funny because i thought it went...

You: shut up Wendy! you spoil PA!
Me: uh, no, you do with your attitude.
You: oh i see, must be trolling from same person on different accounts. (getting personal doesn't usually go well fyi)
Me: shut up, you're annoying.
You (who can dish out but apparently not take):
you don't know what you're talking about. you shut up too because you're saying f**k you.
Me: okay, i'm saying you handle trolls badly, you create more s**t on the site than you're trying to prevent so yeah, i'm pretty much saying f**k you.

i told you to shut up because you're annoying and i don't like you bullying wendy. i mean he/she just asked who plays draw something? i've seen far worse come off with much milder responses and that's usually the case with wendy. i never see wendy just blatantly attack something like some troll. he/she didn't deserve to be told to shut up and be called trash pretty much. i'd do the same thing for anyone else on this site because like i said, i don't like bullies. there's better ways to handle trolls which you'd see if you paid attention.

why would they shut up if you told them to? i'll tell you why you told wendy to shut up, it's because you wanted to call out wendy on being a troll and put him/her down for it. i'm saying instead of being personal and mean just say "you're a troll for this, this and this." being right while they squirm is how you put down trolls not by saying mean things to them which none of us want to see any more than we want to see troll remarks.

why did i have to say you have to have some kind of attitude? you lost me there.
that sounds like something a troll would say. xD

yeah, i'm serious.
it was obviously directed at him/her.
you must think i just fell off the turnip truck.

i know he/she comments everywhere.
oh is it? because i think it's a fact that YOU talk s**tsss. how much more important do you think your opinion is than mine?

it's mean, stupid and i don't want to see that on this site. you didn't seem to take when i said shut up as a joke. in fact i believe you referred to it as a f**k you post. is saying f**k you to somebody considered funny these days?

guy, i give zero f**ks about what you or anybody else on this site thinks of me. i'm going to stand up for what's right and that's that.

Hill Climb Racing is dope, so I'll deal with it. I don't let apps run unchecked in the background for long periods of time, anyway. However, my latest addiction is Bike Race. This game is amazing. I highly recommend it to all.

Who the hell leaves things like these running in the background for hours (not even gonna mention a month, wtf, mindless much?) anyway? Honestly. Not playing - flick it close, end of story. Or am I the only one who thinks that's the actual sensible thing to do?

By saying "Running in the background"They're talking about the apps that run
silently(which do not appear in the multi-task window) and which needs to be closed by going in the application settings. for example facebook, yahoo mail, launchers etc

Just use something like Idle Time Connection Manager to kill your data connection when your screen is off. You can set it to kill all data processes or allow certain ones to have access continuously. I use it and my battery lasts all day now. Seriously...how much data do we need to use when we aren't even looking at the phone? There are ways around these things. Plus...fb can wait until after work right?

I highly doubt that, especially since they killed the auto update feature of My Verizon, so it consumes data only when you actually open it. CPU cycles well that is a different story as My VErizon doesn't do anything and if you have a JB phone you can actually disable any app on your phone including VZW preinstalled junk. With JB you really do have much more control than with the older versions of Android, next step is being able to have stock Android even on carrier subsidized phones.

So - what are we to do with some of these? The idea is for a device to NOT be a battery drain, data drain. The idea is to NOT have to worry about things like this. I shouldn't have to go into apps all FREAKING DAY LONG and shut things down.

What phone are you using? If it has Jelly bean on it, you can disable any app you think is a bother or don't want using clock cycles. Android phones multitask like a PC that's the only reason why things will run in the background. Again all of it can be disabled by going to Apps and then Apps info and simple click of disable and you are done.

Droid Razr.

I shouldn't have to do all that work of monitoring and researching what apps are causing problems. That's my point. I'm not the type that goes digging into my apps in settings to see what's doing what - just to modify it. It should work without having to do that.
